"RsveftiKg for n moment 10 our inquiries
addrezsei 10 Lady Montbarry, We have to
report that she can give US no information
on the subject OF the letter which the doctor
posted NJ Lord Aontbarrys request. When
his lorcship wrote its what IL csntainedi why
he kept it secret from Lady Mor:barry (and
from the baron also)i and why he SHOULD
write at all TO the wife of his ceurieri these
are questions to which we find il simply i'm
possible 10 obtain any replies 1t seems even
useless 10 say that the matter is open TO sus-
picion. Suspicion implies conjecture of some
Kirkland the letter under nay lords pillow
battles all conjecture. Application to Mrs.
Ferrnri nia7 perhaps clear up the mystery
Her residence in London will be easily dis
covered at the Italian couriers' Office, Golden
square.
Having arrived at the close of the present
report, We have now to draw your attention
to the conclusion which is justified by the re-
suits OF our investigation.
"The plain question before our directors
and ourselves appears to be this: Has the In
quiry revealed any extraordinary circum-
stances which render the death Of Lord Mont
barry open TO snspieions The inquiry has
revealed extraordinary circumstances be-
yond all doobt-such as the disappearance Of
Fsrrari, the remarkable absence OF the Gus
tomary establishment of servants in the
house, and the mysterious letter which his
iordshIp asked the doctor 10 post, But where
is the proof that any one OF these crcum-
I stances is associated-suspicieusly and direct
iy associatsd-with the only event which
concerns us, the event OF Lord Nontbarry's
deathi In the ansence Of any such proof. and
in the face of the syidsace Of two eminent
physicians, il is impossible to dispute the
statement ON the Certificate that his lordship
died natural death. We are bound, there
fore, to report that there are no valid grounds
for refusing the payment Of the sum for
which the late Lord Montbarry's life was as
surcd.
